Description

I took two new (second-hand) lenses on out holiday trip to Crete. The Sigma 135 Art is really fantastic. It can be used af f/2.2 with good stars. With that speed, really deep images can be produced. The second lens was the Canon EF 200 f/2.8 (mark II). I used a 52mm step down ring (going to about F/4), but star shapes were below par in my eyes. I worked hard to try and correct this, but I am thinking of selling this lens again. I probably am spoiled by the Sigma..
